Fedora core 3: installing Cedega demo

[Darkelve]

I'm trying to install the Cedega Time limited demo in Fedora Core 3, but it keeps bugging me with something called 'sudo'

 

When uncompressing it ask for a passw, if I give root passwd. it's not ok and if I give my user I get: 'user' is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

 

Any ideas?

It's a time limited demo. Perhaps time has run out? (I'm guessing it's a cedega password you need) :D

Yeah, I think this is the case, since the program exits silently. Still, they could have shown a message saying "sorry, but you have 0 days left, ...", so you would actually know what was going on.

 

But password wasn't for Cedega, because running the installer as root did work and did not ask for a passwd.

Are you listed in the /etc/sudoers file?

No, I was not. I'm back running SuSe now. But thanks for the link, I was interested in learning more about this sudo and sudoers thingies.
